Re: Developmental or Ready to roll?

That's the real question I'll have about so many of the kids coming in as rookies.

it's rarer that a kid comes in and knocks it out of the park.
But there are some excellent games on him; he does come in as a senior; and that he shined against a well regarded group at the Senior game is also reassuring. It's the notes on him that broke the ice. He's got the "right stuff."

balance that against PB's high marks on David Njoku. The tight end has all the gifts, but the finer notes seem to think that he'll need a bit of time.

there's always more on draftees. Coop has had some ac joint issues, doesn't look as if he has the exceptional suddenness that some would like to see. but the comps say Alyo is right; a larger Nelson; the other I saw said Andre Hopkins. oh boy howdy if so.

Njoku may fit a scheme for McVay. Not sure if a move back is a material participant.
But, Harkeys play wasn't devastating this last season. I don't see Hemmingway as a realistic future, and with a real issue with OL, a big target is a salve for a distressed QB.

it looks as if 2017 is a developmental year anyway; is the upside of David far superior to Cooper's? For sure Cooper has a lot more snaps versus than the red shirt sophomore TE.

and then there's JuJu. I still think he's the best of this offensive trio, but that was against college level guys. And he, too, is coming out early. but jeez he's yet another USC player that has a great college career and leaves me nervous about making it translate.

but for now this the 3 guys to parlay at the combine for me and this offense.

  How good is WR Cooper Kupp and would you select him at #37 IF he was still available?

  He's really good, reminds of a bigger Jordy Nelson
